Brothers Henry and Lewis started their thrash metal band Alien Weaponry as teenagers with their parents by their side. Their mission: to rock the world and center Māori culture while doing it. Now it is time for them to take on what comes next, whether that means adding new band members or simply transitioning into adulthood. 

Positioned as a behind-the-scenes look at Alien Weaponry, debut filmmaker Kent Belcher deftly captures a band on the edge of greatness as well as a touching coming-of-age portrait. With intimate access to the band, their family and archival footage highlighting Māori culture, this documentary is sure to charm.––Faridah Gbadamosi
